Automatically translated summary. The full article is available in Romanian.
The Independent Think Tank “Expert-Grup”, with support from the Soros Foundation Moldova, is launching a training and mentoring programme to improve corporate governance in state-owned enterprises and majority state-owned companies in the Republic of Moldova. It is inviting interested companies to apply by 30 September 2020.
The programme is based on the OECD Guidelines on corporate governance of state-owned enterprises and targets managers and members of governing bodies. It focuses on three areas: transparency principles and standards, the responsibilities of boards of directors and their role in ensuring integrity and development, and relations between the company's shareholders.
It has three components: training on the OECD principles; assessments of the current state of governance in the selected companies, followed by gap analyses against those principles; and individual action plans for the five selected companies, implemented with their boards and management, with monitoring and mentoring. Interested companies must email a short motivation letter and name up to three delegates per institution to info@expert-grup.org by 16.00 on 30 September 2020. The programme is part of the project “Strengthening corporate governance in the state-owned enterprise sector”, funded by the Soros Foundation Moldova.
